While the original fire(s) have been extinguished, eight new fires have started in Sevier Co. overnight. Sadly, most of these fires are suspected to have been intentionally set.

Please consider giving something to the people who have lost everything due to these wild fires. I donated to the Red Cross but there are local organizations who need the help as well.

I donated to the local Red Cross too. I hope they catch the individual (s) responsible for these fires, 30 years hard labor would be a fitting sentence.
